Launching in the first half of next year, a whole range of Animal Crossing LEGO sets will let you build scenes from the popular franchise.

There's even a Tom Nook minifigure, if you can stand to welcome that debtor into your real-life home.

Keep on reading and we'll run through all the important Animal Crossing LEGO details — from the release date to the pre-order details, and even the newly revealed box art.

When is the Animal Crossing LEGO release date?

Lego Animal Crossing will be available globally from 1st March 2024.

The partnership between Lego and Nintendo was announced in October 2023 with five different sets due to release next year. Depending on their success, more could be on the way too.

Can I pre-order Animal Crossing LEGO?

You can't yet pre-order the Animal Crossing LEGO sets on the official LEGO website — the 'buy now' button currently says 'coming soon' instead of actually letting you buy it — but product pages have started to appear in other places around the web.

Over at Smyths Toys, for example, it looks like you can actually pre-order the sets now ahead of their March release. Or if you'd like to peruse some more info before you consider a purchase, we've got you covered below.

What does the Animal Crossing LEGO box art look like?

What a specific question! The box art for all the Animal Crossing LEGO sets has now been revealed, courtesy of Smyths Toys, and they've been shared on social by Jay's Brick Blog.

Take a look below to see what the boxes will look like for the Animal Crossing LEGO kits. With such cutesy designs on the outside of the packaging, it will almost feel like a shame to rip them open!
